Perhaps the most famous and celebrated single strand of natural pearls is the Duchess of Windsor/Kelly Klein pearl necklace. Gifted by Queen Mary to King Edward, later the Duke of Windsor, this necklace was sold in the historic “Duchess of Windsor” sale by Sotheby’s Geneva in 1987, and again in 2007 in Sotheby’s New York from the “Collection of Kelly and Calvin Klein”.
